The Well Festival of Arts and Wellbeing 2025 is delighted to present an exhibition of creative pieces by Textile Artist Christina Drennan at the Index Gallery, Central Library. Enjoy this exploration of the beauty & potential of often overlooked material, from waste thread cast aside by sewing machines to loose wool that falls during the creation of a woven wall hanging, to fabric remnants from workshops.
These elements have been transformed and rebirthed by Christina’s skillful hands into works of art reflecting Christina’s philosophy that nothing should be underestimated. Note how Christina creates a beautiful narrative through combining sustainability, creativity, and resourcefulness to elevate the underestimated materials into craftsmanship of significant value. Every exhibit tells a story!
Exhibition Launch will take place on Saturday 8th February at 2:30pm in the Index Gallery. Refreshments Served. All Welcome.
Exhibition Dates: 6th – 27th February
